I just wondered if anyone could help me with this, I'm making my own dechlorinator from Sodium Thiosulfate crystals dissolved in RO water, and I need to know how many moles of chlorine are in my water, so I know how much to dose, the average Chlorine concentration is 0.37 PPM, I will dose double what I theoretically require so the Sodium Thiosulfate is added in an excess to ensure all of the Chlorine is dealt with.
Is my calculation right? There is 0.00037 g/dm-3 so in my tank which has an exact volume of 117.5 decimetres, there would be 0.043475g in 117.5 decimeters.
0.043475/35.453 = 0.00125 moles once rounded, if this value is correct I can then calculate the number of moles of Sodium thiosulfate required to neutralise the chlorine.
Thanks
